House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi appeared on “CBS This Morning” Monday where she was greeted with a video package of Democratic congressmen calling for her ouster.
Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) even called Pelosi more toxic than Donald Trump.
Ouch. When that many politicians are calling for a leader’s removal, perhaps the leader in question should address their concerns. But moonbat Pelosi did no such thing. She simply dismissed them all:
Pelosi smiled as host Charlie Rose asked for her response.
“I’m here, and we’re hearing all these other people. They had their time on TV,” she said. “This is such a small item. It isn’t about me. Right now, our fight is about the Affordable Care Act. I’ve always had a challenge in the caucus, right from the start.”
Rose pointed out that Democrats are 0-for-4 in special elections in 2017, including Jon Ossoff’s $30 million loss in Georgia. But even that didn’t seem to faze Pelosi. She just smiled and parroted the Democratic line that, well, those elections were already favored for Republicans anyway.
Excuses, excuses. And while making those excuses, Pelosi just can’t help but continue to pat herself on the back:
“These people were against me last November,” she said. “They started this before. The fact is this. I led [in 2006] to take us to a majority, became speaker of the House. President Obama became president. He was our spokesperson for eight years. We just lost the election. We could write a message, but the fact is, we need our members to write the message.”
Asked by host Gayle King why she should not step aside, Pelosi repeated her memorable phrase from last week that she was a “master legislator.” As she has stated before, Pelosi said she may have retired if Hillary Clinton had been elected president.
Pelosi clearly seems to believe that she’s the last hope for the Democratic Party now that Clinton has been pushed into exile. But in reality, she’s the John McCain of the Democratic Party: old, senile, and unpopular. It’s time for her to hang it up – we’d all appreciate it.
